Juvenile Trial Watch – Caulfield

Tara Madgwick - Thursday Dec 11

Just the one heat for juveniles at Caulfield this morning, but the winner is a powerhouse colt by Home Affairs that looks a lot like Dad!

Trained by Mick Price and Michael Kent Jr, Guest House was ridden by Beau Mertens and went forward from the jump to share the lead, albeit travelling deep throughout.
